There are so many things to love about this recipe. These 21 Day Fix and WW Chicken Burrito Bowls, which were created by my friend Chellie over at Art From My Table, are super healthy and full of whole foods. Also, they’re kid-friendly. Because of the nature of this recipe, you can add what you want to your burrito bowl and leave out the things you don’t want…perfect for picky eaters!
Also, because this recipe is deconstructed, it’s really easy to figure out your container counts if you’re on the 21 Day Fix. You can measure out your portions as you put your bowl together (see below for container counts following Chellie’s recipe, though!). Same for Weight Watchers…you can add or remove items depending on your daily points allowance!

What I love about this recipe is how simple it is…and also how it’s one of those things you can make for the whole family. You can let picky eaters pick their toppings! it’s kind of like DIY pizza night but with fewer carbs.
This recipe is great for the 21 Day Fix and WW, but as you can probably tell you can also make it work really well for any low-carb, high-protein meal plan.
